Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, February 27, 2024 - 2007 Di Barro Vallee d'Aoste Fumin is spiced and earthy. The mature Fumin is clear and medium ruby in colour with traces of fine sediments. Aromas of black plum, dark chocolate, fennel and anise spices are followed by tertiary notes of earth and leather.

The dry and verging full-bodied mouthfeel is complemented by medium levels of acidity and integrated tannin. There are flavours of black cherry, liquorice and black tea in a medium, spiced finish. It is my first experience with the grape Fumin. I'd have guessed a way younger Blaufränkisch, had it been tasted blind. The 12.5% alcohol is civilised. The empty bottle weighs 505 grams.
